I made a motorized cover for my webcam in the shape of an eyeball. It automatically closes its eyelid after a certain amount of time, which is the main reason it is better than the piece of tape I was using to block my webcam before. Follow along with the build in the video above. Odd_Jay also helped consult on this project!
Supplies for this project:
- Micro servo motor
- Servo motor extension wire (or make your own with ribbon cable and header pins)
- Trinket M0 microcontroller or your other favorite Arduino-compatible
- Potentiometer
- Momentary switch
- DS3231 Realtime clock module (RTC)
- 3D printer (I used my Creality CR10s-pro)
- PLA filament in white, black, and two additional colors of your choice
- Solderless breadboard
- Prototyping wires
- USB cable
- Proto board
- Solid-core hookup wire
- Soldering iron and solder
- Wire strippers
- Flush diagonal cutters
